I have already installed android through haret on my sedna, but it have a lot of bugs, and it's really useless. After that i try to use arngstrom, but there no desktop environment and it works only in terminal mode. Do anyone knows normal working nix distro for sedna? WM6.1 is to slow and now i'm looking for any nix distro with d.e. (something like GNOM or KDE)
Sorry for my ugly English.
Thanks in advance.

Hello everybody. I wish to know if there's any possibility of installing Ubuntu on our devices. I've tried other linux distributions and now I'm looking for Ubuntu.
Every news is welcome. Thanks.
Good day,
I want to setup ubuntu or debian on my wildfire
please help me!
Thanks a lot.
(sorry for same topic!)
Uhhm Ubuntu is a OS for Desktop Computers..
I think its impossble to install it on a mobile device ..
everything is possible..
But it is probably not worth the work, it is really alot of work included to do anything like that.. and I dont think it would run smoothly either

The A501 does not run windows! The Windows Iconia is the W500.
The A500 doesn't have an Intel CPU, so there's almost zero chance of anyone getting any version of Windows to run on it in the foreseeable future. The W500 that runs Windows is a completely different piece of hardware from the A500.
Linux might be possible, as there are ARM versions of Ubuntu running on other tablets, but my understanding is it's a fair amount of work to get everything running (and straight Linux or Windows aren't really very good touch-screen operating systems, anyway).
As far as I am aware there is very little difference between the a500 and a501 save for some 3g and sim setups.
What you may want are some of the windows emulator (which are pretty much on the "poor" side of emulators and "windows") or use a remote setup to use your tablet to run the windows on your pc, just dont expect to be playing COD:MW3 with it.
i knew that. idk y i said a501, my bad. i have tryed linux installer from the market but it still wont boot. i must be missing directorys or sumthing. any ideas on an easyer way to install linux or maybe a tutorial one of u could help me with? iv cheked out the "how to install native linux" a few times but it doesnt make sense. any help would be awsome. thanx guys/girls
Ok so I am interested in developing roms but since I am only gonna begin(still thinking things through) I was hoping you guys can help me with some doubts:
1) Do you prefer building on windows or Linux?
2) Is there an advantage on working with Linux?
3) Is working with Linux on a virtual machine in windows the same?
4) Is there a way to test the rom without having to flash?
5) Is there anywhere you think one should begin or read before actually getting to work?
Thanks in advance
